In the Edith Ruby Opokua Adumuah witness statement, she revealed that Adu-Boahene instructed her to write cheques and later handed them over to the signatories to the accounts.

She added that Adu-Boahene instructed her to write the cheque for GH¢27.1 million with “BNC Operations” as the payee but later got to know that it was the account for Adu-Boahene and his wife (A2), which they kept at the UMB.

“On February 6, 2020, A1 instructed me to write a cheque for twenty-seven million, one hundred thousand Ghana cedis (GH¢27,100,000.00) with ‘BNC Operations’ as the payee. After writing the cheque, I handed it over to A1 for the necessary signatures. My Lord, when A1 directed me to write the cheque with ‘BNC Operations’ as the payee, I understood the description to refer to an existing operational bank account belonging to the bureau, which I was not privy to due to my level of clearance.

Edith Ruby Opokua Adumuah’s witness statement read, “I later found out, when I was invited for questioning concerning this case, that that particular cheque was deposited into an account named ‘BNC Communications Bureau-Operations’ at UMB Bank. I did not know this at the time I wrote the cheque for A1. I also found out from EOCO investigators that that bank account belonged to a private company called ‘BNC Communication Bureau Limited,’ which is owned and controlled by A1 and A2”.

“Also, on March 18, 2020, A1 instructed me to write a cheque for one million Ghana cedis (GH¢1,000,000.00) to be drawn on BNC’s ‘The Director BNC’ account at Fidelity Bank. Then, on March 30, 2020, I wrote another cheque for twenty-one million Ghana cedis (GH¢21,000,000.00), also to be drawn on the BNC’s ‘The Director BNC’ account at Fidelity Bank.

I wrote this third cheque, too, on the instructions of A1. I wrote the second and third cheques also with ‘BNC Operations’ as the payee. After A1 and the late JOSHUA KYEREMEH had signed, A1 then gave me an account number and directed me to deposit the two cheques into the ‘BNC Operations’ bank account at UMB Bank”.

She added, “I complied with A1’s directive, believing that the ‘BNC Operations’ bank account was an additional BNC operational account which I did not have the security clearance to know. I can identify the copies of cheque numbered 020086 for GH¢27,100,000.00, cheque numbered 020089 for GH¢1,000,000.00, and cheque numbered 020094 for GH¢21,000,000.00 to the honourable court”>

Kwabena Adu Boahene, his wife Angela Adjei-Boateng and one other have been charged by the state for stealing, defrauding by false pretences, money laundering, and conspiracy to commit a crime.

According to the charge sheet Kwabena Adu Boahene, his wife stole state funds to the tune of GHc 49 million.

The Attorney General, Dr Dominic Ayine, filed 11 charges against Kwabena Adu-Boahene and three others at the High Court in Accra.

The Office of the Attorney General has filed witness statements in the case against Adu-Boahene and his co-accused – his wife, Angela Adjei-Boateng; their associate, Mildred Boateng and a company jointly owned by Adu-Boahene and his wife, Advantage Solutions Limited.

The Attorney General submitted three witness statements by Frank Marshall Crowell, the case investigator; the Director of Finance at the National Signals Bureau, Edith Ruby Adumuah and Frank Anane Dekpey, an errand boy for the accused persons.
